Syria - Rebel's Military Strategy

By  Abu Anas The Syrian revolution has now lasted 20 months with over 40,000 killed.[1] The rebels fighting Bashar al-Assad number between 70,000 and 100,000.[2] There are several problems facing the rebels, which inhibit their ability to quickly overpower the current regime. Even though the regime's army has dwindled drastically over the past 2 years, it is still very capable, having a large arsenal of deadly weapons at its disposal. Also, it owns the airspace, utilizing its air-force to strike at the rebels from the skies.  In the face of these challenges, the rebels have been following a specific military strategy to overcome their own limitations and the regime's strengths. Due to its limited army personnel, the Assad regime had to make the hard choice of retreating from the countryside and only holding the main cities of each province. The rebels used that weakness and launched continuous campaigns on smaller towns until they have carved up a large liberated region o

Issuance of UN Resolution that Palestine is only the West Bank and the Gaza Strip

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Issuance of UN Resolution that Palestine is only the West Bank and the Gaza Strip: Is that Condolence with Echoes of Lament or a Celebration of a Courageous Stand? Last night a resolution was issued by the United Nations General Assembly declaring Palestine a non-member observer state on its borders maximum up to the 4th of June 1967: "the West Bank and the Gaza Strip." The resolution was celebrated by the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, especially by the Fateh Party, hailed by Mahmoud Abbas and Saeb Arekat as a celebration for Palestine and a historic day. It was endorsed by Hamas in the Gaza Strip as Khalid Meshaal and Ismail Haniyeh felicitated Abbas' effort! That resolution, which eliminates Palestine of 1948 forever as told by Abbas, was regarded by the people as a championed and manifested victory! Had the resolution been imposed on them, we would have said that they are compelled but they pursued it to be issued, humiliating t

A Trail of Broken Promises In 2009, Obama gave a landmark speech during his visit to Cairo, where he stated that: " America is not - and never will be - at war with Islam. " Despite this claim, his actions were in reality an extension of what the Bush Administration started in 2001. The Continued Support of Israel On March 12 th  2007, while speaking to the Democratic activists in Muscatine, then Senator Obama said: “ Nobody is suffering more than the Palestinian people. ” He also stated in his Cairo spe

  Media office Wilayah of Pakistan H. 15 Muharram 1434 M. 2012/11/29 No: PR12072 Press Release Statement of Saad Jagranvi, Head of Central Contact Committee Hizb ut Tahrir in Pakistan My Abduction and Trial Only Strengthens My Resolve to Work for the Khilafah and Confirms the Weak Stance of the Traitorous Rulers I, Saad Jagranvi, a 39 year old father of seven, was abducted from near my family home on Monday, 26 November 2012. Military intelligence assisted by police ambushed me, surrounding my car with their vehicles, blockading me from all directions. I was then transferred with instructions from traitors within the military that my whereabouts are to be hidden from all, to the extent that even the cameras of my cell were covered! It is as if Kayani, Zardari and their handful of traitors would hope to hide their crimes from Allah (swt), when even the smallest of them have been recorded for punishment by the Lord of the World (swt). Neither my ab

Kayani, do you think that seizing Saad Jagranvi will slow the march to Khilafah and your walk to the gallows?

Kayani, do you think that seizing Saad Jagranvi will slow the march to Khilafah and your walk to the gallows? On 26 November 2012, Kayani's thugs seized Saad Jagranvi, member of Hizb ut-Tahrir and head of the Central Contact Committee, shortly before maghrib. A father of six children, Saad called his widowed elderly mother to confirm that he had been taken by agency thugs. Saad Jagranvi is a prominent influential within Lahore from a highly renowned and respected family, the Jagranvis. Hizb ut-Tahrir wishes to remind Kayani and his masters, the Americans who cower in their frail outpost, their embassy, as they hear news of the continuing march of the Hizb. 1. Your campaign of threats, harrassment, abduction and torture, upto and including martyrdom, has not slowed the Hizb's work, let alone stopped it, in any country and never will inshaaAllah. Seeking to extinguish the light and guidance of Allah SWT Deen is a failed pursuit tha

Myanmar: Cycle of Catastrophe

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Myanmar: Cycle of Catastrophe How did we forget? How did we become distant and disconnected? We focus on Palestinians, Libyans and mostly Syrians. Yet we remain aloof about our brothers and sisters in Myanmar. We rush to gather funds and blankets for Syrian refugees yet no word about them. Them: the distant dark-skinned people of the Far East. The situation can almost be comparable if not worse to the time when Rasool Allah (saw) first started his Dawah. Buddhists are threatened by Myanmar Muslims simply because of their belief in Allah and His Messenger. They are set to fire, thrown into the sea or forced to suffer at the hands of enraged Buddhists. Where is the peace so-called Buddhists follow? ((يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَتَّخِذُوا بِطَانَةً مِّن دُونِكُمْ لَا يَأْلُونَكُمْ خَبَالًا وَدُّوا مَا عَنِتُّمْ قَدْ بَدَتِ الْبَغْضَاءُ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَمَا تُخْفِي صُدُورُهُمْ أَكْبَرُ ۚ قَدْ بَيَّنَّا لَكُمُ الْآيَاتِ ۖ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْ

Q&A: Military intervention in Mali

In recent days, many spoke of military intervention in Northern Mali, and yesterday Sunday 11th November 2012, leaders of the Economic Community of West Africa (ECOWAS) met to discuss the restoration of Northern Mali within the State of Mali. Their decision was vague and indecisive. They decided to send 3,300 troops to Mali, but at the same time they declared not to close the door to a political settlement, leaving the door open for dialogue. This was after UN Security Council Resolution 2071 on 10/15/2012, which gave a 45-day deadline to this group. And over this and that, the stances of the major colonialist influences in Africa were different. The most urgent stance for military intervention is taken by France, and to a lesser degree America, whilst Britain displayed a lack of interest. But, what is striking is that Algeria is the hub in this matter, the officials' visits of these countries were frequent to Algeria, and a delegation came just as another left, though Algeria
